Regardless of specs, there is one fellow when asked about the best radio 
will always answer "it is the one you enjoy using".

I realize there are a myriad of differences between the K2 and
K3, but today I read the specs in each owners manual and was somewhat
surprised that the each is listed at about -135 dBm sensitivity (pre-amp
on for K2...pre-amp off at - 130 dBm for K2).
I was curious since I was going thru those tests on the K2/KAT100 set I
have....in anticipation of any hamfest that might come around...whether
to retain or not. If this is basically what this rig does (K2) aside
from what more my K3 offers in other ways (variable bandwidth filter
etc)
then the K2 seems to be something to hold onto, pending a decent offer
I could live with.
Anyhow, I am just spit-balling and throwing this out there, FWIW.
